What ever happened to Barry Bonds?

Answer 1

Things are looking up for Major League Baseball's all-time home run champion. In April 2015, a United States Court of Appeals struck down his felony conviction for obstruction of justice regarding his 2003 grand jury testimony in the BALCO case. Bonds, whose career spanned the years 1986 to 2007 with the Pittsburgh Pirates and the San Francisco Giants, was suspected of using performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs) during the latter stages of his career. But he was never charged or convicted of any illegal activities.

Bonds, who earned a record seven National League Most Valuable Player Awards during his career, holds the record for lifetime home runs (762) and the single-season mark for round trippers (73). But he has not been elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame despite three years of eligibility. Observers have attributed the snubs to Bonds' perceived usage of PEDs as well as his chilly relationship with the media.

The 50-year-old Bonds, who has moved back to the San Francisco area after living for a time in the Los Angeles area, served as a special spring training instructor for the Giants in 2014. The ballclub is considering a more permanent association with their former star.
